જેઓ યહોવાહથી પોતાની યોજનાઓ સંતાડવાને ઊંડો વિચાર કરે છે અને જેઓ અંધકારમાં કામ કરે છે. તેઓ કહે છે, “અમને કોણ જુએ છે, અમારા વિષે કોણ જાણે છે? તેઓને અફસોસ!
हिन्दीयशायाह २९:१५
हाय उन पर जो अपनी युक्ति को यहोवा से छिपाने का बड़ा यत्न करते, और अपने काम अंधेरे में करके कहते हैं, “हमको कौन देखता है? हमको कौन जानता है?”
